Periodic Table Notes 1

Dmitri Mendeleev was the first to publish a periodic table that arranged elements based on atomic mass, leaving spaces for elements not yet discovered that fit his predictions. The modern periodic table arranges elements in periods and groups by increasing atomic number. Elements are categorized as metals, nonmetals, and metalloids based on their physical and chemical properties, with metals usually on the left side and nonmetals on the right.
